Elementary Spanish I

Curriculum Guide (including Course Objectives, Weekly Content, and Scope and

Sequence)

Summary of Course Layout

The Spanish Elementary 1 course consists of 180 lesson days formatted in an intuitive calendar view, which can be divided into two 90-day semesters. The content for each week is based on an immersive Diglot Weave™ story which runs throughout the course with weekly episodes beginning in English and each day weaving in more Spanish. Although the course focuses principally on vocabulary acquisition, basic grammar principles are intuitively grasped through the story, games, activities, and assessments. In addition, students learn to perform a different simple story each semester. Culture lessons are

presented through multi-media CultureGrams™ lessons covering cultural aspects of major Spanish-speaking areas in Europe and the Americas.

Overall Course Objectives

The Spanish Elementary 1 course helps students:

 Engage in language learning in a rewarding, low-stress environment  Get comfortable with the sounds and rhythms of Spanish

 Comprehend more than 600 vocabulary words

 Begin to read, write, speak and listen for meaning in Spanish  Give simple performances (e.g. songs, stories, etc.) in Spanish

 Recognize distinctive practices and products of various Spanish-speaking countries

Recurring Content

 Diglot Weave™ Story

o Each week students follow a new episode of an immersive Diglot Weave™ story. The story is told several times, each time with more Spanish woven in. (Diglot comes from the roots "di" meaning two and "glot" meaning language. These stories weave together the students' native language and the target language.) These stories provide students a fun and linguistically-rich context for optimal comprehension.

 Reinforcement Activities

o A range of interactive games helps students reinforce vocabulary and phrases. These activities may be completed multiple times so that students can better retain and apply the new information.

 Presentation of Culture through CultureGrams™ and Culture Videos

o Each week students learn about various cultural aspects (e.g. practices and products) of a Spanish-speaking country. CultureGrams™ are multi-media cultural presentations that

cover a wide range of topics such as gestures, etiquette, history, food, and more. The lessons are built for students in grades 3-6.

 Target Performance

o Each semester, students learn and perform (i.e. submit a recording of) a story or song they have learned. The target performance content is structurally simple, but helps students gain an intuitive grasp of basic grammar, and to begin to work creatively in the language by stringing together words to make sentences, songs, or stories.

 Assessments

o Diglot Weave™ comprehension quizzes verify that students are following the ongoing immersive Diglot Weave™ story and that they are picking up key ideas and vocabulary as they follow along.

o Culture comprehension quizzes verify that students have captured facts and key understandings from the cultural presentations.

o End-of-week quizzes assess students’ comprehension of the main vocabulary words presented that week. Students are typically responsible for learning 15-20 new vocabulary words or phrases each week.

 Oral and Written Activities

o Each week, students complete oral or written activities. These activities give students a chance to become more familiar with the target vocabulary and basic speaking and writing patterns of Spanish by applying them in simplified communicative situations.
